New House..

Post by Georg »

In the beginning of October me and wife bought a bigger house. The carage was in awful condition so it was the first to sort out.

I'll put some pics of my new sanctuary to be here.

Startpoint was this (don't mind all the stuff there is after the moving..)

Two weeks of work almost every night after real work:

Missus liked it very much when I said that every garage needs both a sofa and a fridge. I like the idea though..

Originally this house was owned by some motorsport dude. At least according to rally-featured stickers around the garage. I left couple of old stickers on their place (with original paint colour). For nostalgy reasons.

Now that's what I call a pair of well equipped garages. :nod: :lol: :lol:
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Well. My garage fridge is almost empty all the time. You know...making a renovation...err...nothing to do with the fact that you need many cans of beer when sorting all the bits and bobs gathered during last 15 years.

I even don't have my bikes in the garage yet. I still need to paint the roof, make shelves and places for tools etc. Today I spent the night unpackig all the bolts, nuts, washers and fittings...sigh. So much to do do and so little time.

Today it was freezing. Below zero degrees Celsius most of the day so I don't know if I can get my bikes here before winter starts. It would be quite humiliating to use a van to transport the bikes to their new home. Well the RD350 has stood for 3 or more years now so it does not ride I guess. But the RU would be nice to get here with it's own power. :)

I have a fridge in my shed for keeping spare wheel bearings in until I need them (that's my excuse & I'm keeping to it) :unibrow:
